Rajeev Sajja What is Social Media ROI?

We watched Eric Qualman's socialnomics video a couple of times this week and I have finally read his book as well and has prompted me to write this post on ROI.

Rajeev Sajja No more email ping pong!

For the record, I love ping pong but not when it comes to scheduling meeting time with people as part of my daily work life. I use Microsoft Outlook and really like its features and for the select few that have Exchange email, one has the ability to share calendars so there is very little ping pong. However, that is restricted to within an organization and not available to be shared with external people.

Well, I have just started using Tungle Me (*FREE* se… Continue

Rajeev Sajja Nintendo, Apple and yes, an iPad review!

I remember growing up and having video games that I played on TV. The gaming industry has been around for a while and has matured quite a bit i and is very competitive. Late 2009, we bought the Nintendo Wii Fit, the innovative exercise game from Nintendo Wii. For someone that is not a big fan of exercise (or anything activity that is not fun!) we are quite addicted to the Wii Fit. How and why did that transformation happen? In its own uniq… Continue

Rajeev Sajja Is Exceptional Customer Experience your brand?

What comes to your mind when you think of Whole Foods, Home Depot, Nordstroms? In my opinion, it is exceptional customer experience. Just yesterday, I visited the Whole Foods near my home and asked one of the associates for some help and he stopped what he was doing and immediately attended to my needs even though it was not his direct line of work. These type of experiences are very common when I visit Whole Foods and the other brands I s… Continue

Rajeev Sajja Take aways from Inman Real Estate Connect NY 2010

I got a chance to attend the Real Estate Connect 2010 in NY from Wed (1/13) to Fri (1/15) and wanted to summarize my thoughts here. I attended 10 intensive sessions on specific topics besides the Main Conference Program that featured many renowned speakers including Craig Newmark, Founder of Craigslist. The other intangible is to meet some of the people IRL (In Real Life) that I have been following on Twitter for some time. I finally met @phxREguy in the Broker Summit and frankly, he should hav… Continue

Phenomenal and Kick Ass are the words that come to mind in des… Continue

Rajeev Sajja LinkedIn: Now we have an App for that!

The new LinkedIn iPhone 3.0 App was released on Monday, Dec 28 and by all accounts is a MAJOR upgrade from its predecessor.

It is a business card exchange option built into the app. Any option th… Continue

On November 19, I surprised my wife with the iPhone 3GS for her birthday and earned serious brownie points as it was least expected.

Rajeev Sajja In Google We Trust

If you are a real estate professional, being findable has never been more important than now as we see noticeable declines in print media advertising. Being omni present so people can find you starting with Google is more relevant than ever. It is amazing how Google has become a verb as well. I hear "Let's google that!" very regularly now... Over the last few years, Google has become the 800 pound Gorrilla in the Search Engine market and you need to pay attention to your online presence and ho… Continue
